Engine Oil Impurities and level Monitoring System

The key element for mechanics of every vehicle be it a 2-wheeler, 3-wheeler, 4-wheeler and so on requires engine oil to work smoothly. Engine oil's primary function is to lubricate the moving elements of engines, which are constantly undergoing friction. As a result, friction is decreased, which tends to diminish longevity of engine parts. During combustion, energy is wasted, and mechanical parts rubbing against one another raise engine temperature. With increased usage the engine takes a lot of wear and tear this leads to accumulation of impurities in the oil. The project describes the design and development of an IoT based oil impurities, level monitoring instrument and its operational methodology. This project uses a unique approach with LED spectrophotometry. The developed instrument in the project will do Qualitative and Quantitative assessment of lubricant oil in IC engine’s sump. This in turn aids in carrying out decisive actions to maintain the ecological emissions and engine life cycle.
